EXCLUSIVE: Zayed Khan opens up on his bond with father Sanjay Khan; also reveals that his father is all set to direct a BIG military saga with him

Zayed Khan said, “I am blessed to have my family. They have been with me through thick and thin. I went through a very rough patch. I was not taking care of myself. I was not in a good frame of mind. And I am a very proud person. I don’t always complain. I don’t tell people about my failures but I love to share with them my successes. But it’s amazing when people understand that and they are there for you, not just my family but even certain friends. Family is the reason why I gave up films and it’s the reason why I resurrected myself. It’s my greatest weakness and my greatest strength.”

Zayed Khan then revealed that his father Sanjay Khan was not too excited about the former doing a mockumentary film like TFTNW. Zayed revealed, “When I told my father that I am doing this film, he said, ‘Kya bakwaas hai yeh’! I told him, ‘Pops, trust me’. He said, ‘No, I can’t trust you’! But I insisted, ‘It’s a new age film. You might not understand this now but let us make it’. When I showed him the rushes, he said, ‘You’re on to something’! Seasoned people can sense it, I guess.”

Reports suggest that Sanjay Khan has a cameo appearance in the film. This means that the father-son duo will share screen space for the first time. Zayed Khan chose not to comment on this aspect. But he added, “My father has seen the film and his feedback was, ‘You have finally become an actor’! It was nice to hear. For him to say that, it would mean that I have matured into understanding what acting is about. Quite honestly, after doing this film, I fell in love with acting all over again. I knew what I was born for or what my purpose in life is.”

Meanwhile, Sanjay Khan is gearing up for a grand film, which will star Zayed Khan in the lead role. Zayed said, “It’s a big-budget military saga. I hope I do justice, as it’s a very tough role. For the first time in his life, he felt that I deserved a film. He has never made a film with me before. He’s been working on the script for the last 3 years. Javed Siddiqui is writing the dialogues. I am in the midst of preparing for the role right now. A lot is expected from me and I am going for workshops, military training etc.”

Will it go on floors in 2023? Zayed replied, “Fingers crossed. As of now, I am looking forward to TFTNW. We are happy with the product and content with ourselves. We can’t wait for people to see it.”
